Fuel requirements are normally stated on the fuel cap and in the owners manual. But, regular 87 octane pump gas is perfectly fine. No need to run anything else unless you are tuned. The Dakota is a 4.7. Have you checked the pressures yet on the AC system? Have you tried jumping the high pressure switch to make the compressor engage? If it's truly low, you have a leak. Need to fix that first. I recommend taking it to a shop that does AC work and get it looked at.

I do know though that when I use Torque android app on my phone connected to my van through OBDII I see that running 87octane the timing is advanced to the mid 30's and running 89octane it is advanced about 15 to 25. The app doesn't give me units but I believe those numbers are degrees. I've never set timing on a car before so I'm not entirely sure what that all means.
